Gratitude & Congratulations
Good day Maryland Squash. We wish to share a note of congratulations and gratitude ... congratulations to our Champions, and gratitude for the entire Squash Playing Community, our financial Sponsors, our Club / Court Managers for which the 2023 State Squash Championships would not have been as successful and enjoyable.
Earlier this month - we concluded 200+ matches for our 130+ players at the Maryland Club and at Calvert School, topping it off with an outstanding Championship evening and dinner at Calvert School. We are grateful to these clubs and the 5+ other clubs which made their courts available to our players, which are memorialized on the back of the Tournament Shirt given to all players and Sponsors.
